I went this place for coffee with my friend. We chose the cake and ordered drink in upstairs. I ordered the espresso, and had a one like I had in Italy! In the front yard of the shop, there is a cherry blossom tree. It would be nice to see the cherry blossom in a day light, or from the bar on the first floor with your favorite drink. Like you do in Italy, you can pay at the table. This place is only 3-4 minutes walk from JR Ashiya station. There are nice small shops around there.

Great food! This is a real Italian restaurant. Do not come here expecting pizzas - they don't serve any.
We had the antipasto which was nothing to write home about.
We also had their grilled steak which was very good but it can't be called anything special.
What we did have was their poached fish. Half a whole fish with skin on, simple braised with white wine, olive oil and lots of butter. It was fantastic! Afterwards, they take the leftover sauce and they make a pasta dish out of it. What you get is the tastiest bit of pasta for the evening.
We also had a couple of other pasta dishes but they just did not compare to that little bit of pasta we had after the main course.
They do have a tiny patio and the Italian cook comes out to say hello to everyone.
It is not fine dining destination, more of a country kitchen feel. Don't expect to just arrive and get seated, you need a reservation during peak hours.
No designated parking spots but plenty of pay parking nearby.
We are planning to come back.

My wife gifted me cookie and cream puff. Both of them, super! It was sweat but very sophisticated sweetness. Once you eat it you must feel craftsmanship!

There is often a line at this small shop. The baker studied in Germany at several bakeries and has a certificate as a Meister, a master of his craft, and the quality of the bread is world-class. This is easily the best bread I have had ever and I have eaten a lot of bread in Japan, the US, England or NZ; when I shared it with my foreign friends in Kyoto, they were also equally impressed.
This is not light, fluffy nutritionless comercial American Bread, nor is it bland French-style bread that can be bought almost anywhere in Japan. This is substantial, full-flavored and weighty German-styled bread. I suggest thin slicing it if you are not used to bread of this density and rich, nutty flavor.
The price for a loaf is a bit less than 700 ranging up to about 900 yen for loaf that, when thin sliced, will last 2-3 times longer than a loaf of regular bread. A half loaf will last one person about 4 days.

Fantastic selection - beef sandwiches, hot dogs, sweet treats, and so many more. This is, of course, in addition to several bread varieties of which my favourites are boule and hard toast. It is, however, so popular that there often a LONG line of customers. And yet, the staff is so friendly and efficient that there is never any problem.
The parking lot is only big enough for three or four cars - a bit of a problem at busy times. You will, however, like what you get here.

This restaurant specializing in noodles made only from buckwheat flour has been awarded a Michelin star. They serve the highest quality soba noodle dishes priced from 1000 yen to 1600 yen. I also enjoyed a settled Japanese style atmosphere, and the view of lovely garden from our table.
新緑の美しい5月末の月曜に訪問しました。11:15分頃について2番目、30分後には駐車場待ちの方がいらっしゃいました。お蕎麦だけではなく、おろしそばにつく鰹節やざるそばの海苔、かなりどろっとした蕎麦湯など、すべてにこだわりが見られます。場所は不便ですが景色も美しく、優雅なひとときを過ごせました。

We struggle to find restaurants that understand gluten and cross contamination, while offering a fun dining experience, but we just found one. We made Reservations via email, and were warmly greeted. They asked us to remove our shoes, which is still awkward for us, but...MoreThanks for your wonderful message! It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m so happy. Please come and spend time here again. chef Hisashi/M
